one of the least controversial things you could possibly imagine the united states government agreeing to. well, a bill to adjust that payment for the cost of living was brought to the senate floor last thursday. it was expected to go ahead. no muss, no fuss, who's going to argue with that? it was blocked by someone in governor romney's party. an unnamed republican senator has put a hold on the cost of living adjustment to the surviving spouses and children's payment for soldiers killed in the war. the same hold is also affecting the disability payments to soldiers who are wounded in the war. some republican senator is blocking this. we don't know who. governor romney, here's a place to start. you are now the leader of the republican party. i realize you're having a hard time getting the training wheels off when it comes to national security, but here's an easy one. should that senator from your own party lift that hold on the cost of living adjustment to the payments to those people who we sort of owe it to? should a republican senator who's holding this up keep that hold in place or

no speech is illegal in the united states. but that is a hard thing for other people in the world to understand in a world where governments often do control speech, they do control the media and the arts and broadcast. so when egyptian television is reporting there's a bigoted crude american movie insulting islams and muslims, people who don't understand how american free speech works will think the american government okayed the movie. we do not ban speech, even stupid and offensive and provocative speech, we don't ban it. beyond all the chest-thumping by politicians right now about standing up for the right of

that changed the economic equation not just in the united states but around the world. that caused a severe recession. people pulled back, you know, and as that happened, then we had this situation with the banks. they had all their problems, and we all know about that. so the economic problems that we have had in the last 10 years are not because of the bush tax cuts. i would say they are in spite of them. again, if you look at the charts, there has been a slight decline in revenue and is the beginning to come back. but the problem is not the revenue line. the problem is the spending line. you know, my first year in congress back in 1985, the entire federal budget, the entire federal budget was less than $1 trillion. this year, the total spending of the federal budget, i think $3.60 trillion, and the deficit, the deficit was projected to be $1.50 trillion, and i think it is going to come in about $1.11 trillion. this will be the third year in a row that we have had the deficit, the money we have to borrow, over $1 trillion. and that is more than the entire federal budg
